Our 1/3 acre lot had several cottonwood, alder, and maple trees that were dangerously close to our house or neighbor's house. They had to come down. Jessie's Dad helped cut down four trees one Saturday. And it took all day.
For the next trees we called the professionals. They climbed into our huge cottonwood and maple trees and took them down piece by piece.
Ryan's job was to feed the branches into the chipper. At the end of the two days we had a huge pile of chips that we will use for landscaping.
